Download or read book 200 Active Learning Strategies and Projects for Engaging Students Multiple Intelligences written by James Bellanca and published by Corwin Press. This book was released on 2009 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What if Libyan terrorists obtained $US36 billion worth of street ready heroin? White Monsoon is a codename for a plot by six Libyan terrorists to flood the United States with bargain-basement-priced heroin. This release intertwines two novels, subtitled, MORPHINE BASE set in March, 1992 and PURE HEROIN around Halloween of the same year. "Scott, I'm mad at you " the voice in Xenia, OH said. "What's the matter, Jim? What are you mad about?" "You sent me your book and I opened it, started reading and couldn't put it down. I read it straight through and hardly got any sleep in three or four days." Then he laughed. "No. You have really got something here. This is a wonderful story." James H. "Pee Wee" Martin, 101st Airborne - 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 3rd Battalion - G Company Morphine Base is an intriguing fast-paced collection of stories that weave together into an international thriller. One story line follows a group of Libyan terrorists with curious non-Muslim names as they weed out a Mossad informant in their midst, masquerade as members of the International Red Cross and transport five eighteen wheelers from Libya to Nimach (an acronym for Northern India Mounted Artillery & Cavalry Headquarters) a town of about 150,000 known for the highest opium production in India. In another story line, Scott captures the world of the opium trade from both the licit and illicit sides of the coin by focusing on one group of licensed opium farmers and their interactions with vicious drug traffickers as they try to bring their opium harvest to market once again in Nimach. High ranking Mossad agents come across the pond to ask the help of old friends at the CIA's training facility nicknamed "The Farm" in Virginia. The Mossad want help finding a missing agent who had infiltrated a dangerous terrorist group and almost discovered the terrorists' plot--code named White Monsoon. Pure Heroin is aptly titled because it is the central theme around which the entire tale is spun. Heroin causes the three year old daughter and infant son of an educational programmer of personal computers to be kidnapped and taken to a remote prison built in a molybdenum mine abandoned by the Russians following their brief occupation of Afghanistan. Heroin causes the death of the daughter and husband of a woman who helps the terrified father. Wonderful people, the father and the woman who helps him find themselves drawn to each other with ever growing yearnings, visceral and deep, as they try deperately to override their feelings and stay focused on finding out where the man's children have been taken. This PG-13 yarn about two American heroes delights all ages according to some wonderful feedback. One twelve year old Indian boy gave it to his grandparents who looked forward to the book more than television and read the book to each other. This seems to be a trend. We're hearing from numerous couples they've been reading to their spouses or to their families once or twice a week and it's helping to bring people back to the dinner table. We've had people receive the book as a gift who were sad at first that they didn't get something by one of their favorite authors. One taxi driver from Oklahoma City wrote, "I almost took the book to Barnes & Noble to exchange it. I'm so glad I didn't. I read it while waiting in taxi stands and had it sitting in my passenger seat. I ended up giving it to a site locator for the movie industry who was looking for farms for another twister movie and told the guy what a great low budget movie it would make."

Download or read book Designs for Cooperative Interactions written by Robin Fogarty and published by Corwin. This book was released on 1993-06 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Educators are moving toward models of instruction that contain a myriad of interaction patterns among teachers and students. This shift from didactic teaching models to intensely involving designs is difficult for teachers, but is made easier if seen as a gradual change. This book provides an overview of 12 cooperative interaction designs for the classroom that involve high content (in standard disciplines such as the sciences, the humanities, and the arts); high support (which cites the expectations for cooperative interaction) and high challenge (which dictates the need for meaningful and thoughtful learner activities). An introduction provides an overview of the 12 cooperative interaction designs and suggests ways to use this book. The second section describes the 12 models: (1) lecture/rhetorical questioning: teacher talk; (2) signals/direct questioning: surveying; (3) turn to your partner and... (TTYPA); (4) paired partners: think aloud; (5) dyads: think/pair/share; (6) triads: observer feedback; (7) tell/retell: 2-4-8; (8) cooperative learning: groups; (9) traveling clusters: people search; (10) forced response: wraparound; (11) total group response: human graph; and (12) group investigation: jigsaw. A "Quick Reference of Cooperative Interactions" is included. The book's Afterword describes the new school "lecture," and a bibliography of 31 items divided under headings that mirror the 12 models concludes the guide. (DR)

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: WhatÊandÊhowÊyoung children are thinking are typically expressed and shared at home and school through verbal and written modes of communication. As a visual language framework conceived and developed by David Hyerle, Thinking Maps® offers an additional way for learners to represent their ideas by visually mapping their fundamental patterns of thinking. The authors offer a wide range of materials, strategies, and evidence-based practices for implementing Thinking Maps (and the metacognitive framing strategy that each map promotes) in ways that are developmentally appropriate, culturally responsive, and more inclusive with the full range of pre-K–second-grade children. Since 1990, Thinking Maps have been implemented by teachers in over 15,000 schools across the United States and around the world, including countrywide implementation in Malaysia. This guide provides a whole-child approach with practical ideas and best applications for working with emergent readers and writers across developmental domains, curricula, and executive function.

Download or read book Resource Oriented Architecture Patterns for Webs of Data written by Brian Sletten and published by Morgan & Claypool Publishers. This book was released on 2013-04-01 with total page 95 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The surge of interest in the REpresentational State Transfer (REST) architectural style, the Semantic Web, and Linked Data has resulted in the development of innovative, flexible, and powerful systems that embrace one or more of these compatible technologies. However, most developers, architects, Information Technology managers, and platform owners have only been exposed to the basics of resource-oriented architectures. This book is an attempt to catalog and elucidate several reusable solutions that have been seen in the wild in the now increasingly familiar "patterns book" style. These are not turn key implementations, but rather, useful strategies for solving certain problems in the development of modern, resource-oriented systems, both on the public Web and within an organization's firewalls.

Download or read book Higher Order Thinking in Science Classrooms Students Learning and Teachers Professional Development written by Anat Zohar and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2004-01-31 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How can educators bridge the gap between "big" ideas about teaching students to think and educational practice? This book addresses this question by a unique combination of theory, field experience and elaborate educational research. Its basic idea is to look at science instruction with regard to two sets of explicit goals: one set refers to teaching science concepts and the second set refers to teaching higher order thinking. This book tells about how thinking can be taught not only in the rare and unique conditions that are so typical of affluent experimental educational projects but also in the less privileged but much more common conditions of educational practice that most schools have to endure. It provides empirical evidence showing that students from all academic levels actually improve their thinking and their scientific knowledge following the thinking curricula, and discusses specific means for teaching higher order thinking to students with low academic achievements. The second part of the book addresses issues that pertain to teachers' professional development and to their knowledge and beliefs regarding the teaching of higher order thinking. This book is intended for a very large audience: researchers (including graduate students), curricular designers, practicing and pre-service teachers, college students, teacher educators and those interested in educational reform. Although the book is primarily about the development of thinking in science classrooms, most of it chapters may be of interest to educators from all disciplines.
